Just Curious! The price of expanding the hood is getting exponentially more and more expensive till the extent of me selling away some of the lower income money building! Currently my current expansion cost me 400k! I know is not very much. But for me is way too high!What about you guys? What's the price of your current/next expansion ?
750k. I would recommend not selling buildings for money. Just keep saving, you'll get there.Originally Posted by Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion! But don't you think some money building are just purely wasting space? Like arcade and collection agency. High ROI. Arcade is like totally ****! haha! Expensive to upgrade, + you have to keep collecting every hour to catch up on the ROI. Just my opinion!
I agree, that yes the ROI is very high. You will find that a lot of people here will agree that those buildings aren't worth the space. I, on the other hand, kindly disagree. I play often enough to where I can collect every hour. Now I don't own either of those buildings, but as soon as I have room for them I will build them.Thanks for the suggestion!

Back on topic though, you are expanding for more room. But you are selling buildings, which creates room, to buy more room. Seems redundant to me. I have sold buildings, (mostly guard towers) to make room for better ones. I always make sure to make up for the building that I sell though (Income or defense wise). If you are having to sell buildings to expand, in my opinion, I don't think you are ready to expand. I am holding off on my 750k expansion, because I am focusing on building up my defense and income first. Doesn't mean you are a bad or good player, just one that can foresee what is coming down the road.

Hmm.. Okay. I got your point. But the reason I am selling off some of the lower income building while expanding. Is because I am completely packed without any space at all. Can't even shift the building around to fully utilize the space. Even when my expanding is done. The space is not sufficient for me to build a loft or crematorium. I plan to stopped expanding after building 2 more cremantorium and focus on upgrading the rest of my towers! I am Level 79 now btw! What do you think? For now I would rather spend the money on upgrading and building towers than expanding my hood next which is a whooping 750k! Ouch! haha!
Now we are on the same page. I have sold buildings to replace them with higher income buildings. This, as long as it doesn't become a habit, is a good strategy. (All in my opinion)
Towers are good, when you can't put anything else in the 3x3 space. I slowly got rid of all but 2 of my towers, replaced with Body Guard Agencies (25 Gold). They are a bit bigger at 4x5 a pop, but soooo worth it.

I don't buy gold! So I use those small gatling gun for my defense, as they can fit into those un-used little gaps. haha! Well.. Thanks for sharing about how you feel. I roughly have the idea what I need to do now. I need to CAMP for awhile, maybe a week or 2. Oh btw, you say we are on the same page? I don't think so! I am level 79 now. The highest level player I seen on my list is 83. You are 89 right! So yeaaaa.. I think a couple more levels then we may be on the same page! haha!
I meant on the topic.
Camping is a very good idea, although I just don't have the patience for it. I haven't been hit by a high level yet, but I think it's because I only have 273 mafia members. If you can't equip each of your mafia members with the best of the 4 categories of items (Gun, Melee, Armor, and Vehicles), I don't see a need to expand your mafia. Unless of course you are going for the 500 mafia building, the Nightclub. And a spare 40 million dollars..

For me, camping is easy. Because I play other games or watch TV. When is time, I will collect my money. Wow for 273 member, you are able to hit 11k def. That's quite awesome! I have 11k def too. But 575 mafia! I am lazy to decrease! I am not robbed often too. But once I got hit. I usually lose a couple of thousands. But is okay for me, since I am camping! I planned to get 2 nightclub before I hit lvl 90. I hope 2 months of camping is able for me to get it!
My last expansion I spent was 30 million (Expansion 24)...i know wtf would you waste money on that...but for me that's the only goal I have left listed and I'm getting quite bored, so most money are spent on useless things. >.<
Almost $4 million. And I think my hood is quite small.Just Curious! The price of expanding the hood is getting exponentially more and more expensive till the extent of me selling away some of the lower income money building! Currently my current expansion cost me 400k! I know is not very much. But for me is way too high!

ROI means return-on-investment. The building you describe are actually low ROI buildings. High cost, low ROI. I hope you are not in finance....LOL!Thanks for the suggestion! But don't you think some money building are just purely wasting space? Like arcade and collection agency. High ROI. Arcade is like totally ****! haha! Expensive to upgrade, + you have to keep collecting every hour to catch up on the ROI. Just my opinion!
And yes, most people sell them off. Look at any of your high level mob members and see how many high income ones kept arcades and sports bars around.
My next expansion costs $2,400,000.

PM me if you want to add me so I know who you are.
Egg on my face, you are correct. I agreed with Cheers, I suppose I was thinking it was a high ROI because most people can't collect from them as often.
